Does anyone speak "American" anymore?

[Stinky_Hooker]

In order to continue getting-by in America (our home land), we all need to learn the NEW English language! Practice by reading the following conversation until you are able to understand the term "TENJOOBERRYMUDS". With a little patience, you'll be able to fit right in with the growing trend!!!

Now, here goes...


The following is a telephone exchange between a hotel guest and room-service:

Room Service (RS): "Morrin. Roon sirbees."

Guest (G): "Sorry, I thought I dialed room-service."

RS: " Rye . Roon sirbees...morrin! Joowish to oddor sunteen???"

G: "Uh..... Yes, I'd like to order bacon and eggs."

RS: "Ow July den?"

G: ".....What??"

RS: "Ow July den?!?... pryed, boyud, poochd?"

G: "Oh, the eggs! How do I like them? Sorry... scrambled, please."

RS: "Ow July dee baykem? Crease?"

G: "Crisp will be fine."

G: "What?"

RS: "An toes. July Sahn toes?"

G: "I... don't think so"

Stink,I'm way ahead. Round here there several dialects. A few being; Geechee, Gullah, Daufuskie,Beaufort, the plain ole kuntry twist on any of these and lets not forget the social speach pattern that can be distinguished as either Augusta or Macon.
I unknowingly amazed one fellow (african american) worker by carring on a conversation with another (african american). When it was over the other guy asked, "how in the hell could you understand him,
I'm black and couldn't pick out three words he said"?
I just said "he's either from Beaufort or Daufuskie, that's the way they talk".
He went up to the guy, asked him where he was from and the responce was "just outside Beaufort".

How can he be from just outside of Beaufort if he's an AFRICAN AMERICAN? * ??? * ;) ;)

Stinky...I went back thru yer 1st post on this thread and have concluded it'd be infinately easier and much more productive to get in the truck and go to the nearest Waffle House 8) ...

The other day, I got a Customer Service rep in Pakistan...tried for a little while, but eventually asked for American Customer Service...was immediately switched state-side and concluded my business...if everybody starts makin' this request, maybe they'll get the hint ::) ...

You've been warned!! ;D ;D ;D

Seriously though if I were politically correct I would be an English/Irish/Swedish/Cherokee American, kinda too long to say or write. And I want my reparations for my great great great grandparents having to live in a one room "house" with a dirt floor and bust their a$$ to have their descendants move up the food chain from nothing! Ya'll think the good reverend jackson or aclu might be interested in helping me? ;) ;)

Sorry none of those titles are allowed to fit to you.
Look in the mirror, automatic disqualification.

[Stinky_Hooker]

I agree RAP. Much easier.
